Klaus' Family and Hades' Hope by Ravenclawtraveler

Lily struggled as she moved up the stairs. Her husband James screamed, "Lily take Harry and run. He is here! I will fight him off." James turned and said, "I am sorry Angie." He whispered to himself. He cut himself and said some ancient words in Latin, "O death, have mercy on my blood adopted son's soul and take my sacrifice to save his. Keep my son and god children from harm as long as I am on the mortal plane and keep them from true harm. So mote it be." Someone burst in the door and said, "Avada Kedavra." The next second James fell from the floor. The figure moved up the stairs and went and said, "Stand aside girl." Lily screamed, "No. I will not." "Stand aside, girl." "Never, take me instead." "STAND ASIDE!" "NO!" "Very Well. Avada Kedavra." "I am sorry little one, It hurts worse when you are left alone. Dumbledore would use you to his own game. I hope you forgive me one day." The little guy surprised him as he whispered in snake tongue, " I know. Harry is sorry. Dumble bad." He smiled at him like a child greeting his favorite uncle and not the murderer of his parents. "You are a remarkable child." He said with a small smile. "I am sorry little speaker." He points his wand at him. "Avada Kedavra." That is where it all went wrong, the spell backfired, Voldemort vanished, people celebrated, and Dumbledore did some dastardly things on a little boy after he was dropped off at the Dursleys and McGonagall and Hagrid left. The first chapter starts at the summer before 3rd year. The cover photo is Angie that James referred to who is named Agatha Black. The question is how she and the Original family are tied into the story. Read and find out in Klaus' family and Hades' Hope.

Regulus slowly lifts his head from his book, briefly wondering if he's managed to land himself into a similar alternate dimension, "Come again?"

Don't keep me waiting" ***************** 𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 Romie Lupin is fed up of her brother interfering with her love life because he's getting nowhere with his own, and seeks out help from Regulus Black. ***************** (This story may include mature content and emotional triggers that could cause distress towards the reader)

The Not So Noble House of Black by -simplysage-

･｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ.There is someone out there who thinks you're perfect and they will give you the world, the stars and everything in between･｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. Sirius had one sibling, Regulus. It was just the two of them. Right? Wrong. The Noble House of Black were the envy of the entire Wizarding World. Pureblood, part of the Sacred 28, rich, powerful, everything you could hope to be. But the Noble House of Black may not be so noble after all... Cover by @softpoetry_ All characters belong to JK R*wling except for Alex Abbot and Ascella Black. I am in no way, shape or form a literary genius, I am a teenager and how many teenage geniuses have you heard of? Okay, that wasn't a great question but don't expect this to be the next All The Young Dudes.

Cross Your Heart // Regulus Black by WrenMC510

The Sacred 28 families are some of the most powerful wizarding lines in the world, and their purity is guarded carefully. Many a pureblood has been forced to marry for blood rather than for love, but no one takes it quite as seriously as the last of the original sacred families. They marry for status, not for love. Never for love. With the families dying out and the old traditions fading into distant memory, it's never been more paramount for the Sacred families to make powerful matches for their children. Preserving the pureblood lines and the magic that runs through them is of the utmost importance. The Black Family Dynasty is more than familiar with the traditional customs, and no one has arranged a more powerful match than Walburga and Orion Black. A Gaunt and a Black. An inconceivably powerful alliance, two of the most prominent family lines in wizarding history, finally connected. Their son, their heir, matched with a Gaunt? They couldn't be happier. Magdelyna Merope Gaunt, the daughter of Morfin Gaunt and the cousin of Tom Marvolo Riddle himself. She could never refuse such a match- no good pureblooded girl would ever dare to turn away a member of the House of Black. And with her family nearly eradicated, she has no choice but to marry. Who better than Regulus Black? The only complication? The wizarding world is teetering on the edge of a war, and Regulus is right in the middle of it. When a prophecy complicates matters, Regulus and Magdelyna have to work together to stay alive, caught up in a game that neither fully understands. A game that stretches through time, that defies the laws of life and death. When the side of good isn't completely good and the side of evil isn't completely evil, they have to find a middle ground. --- {1978-1998} Regulus Black x OFC MATURE BOOK!

seven knights of wands | regulus black by Auroratic

"I face death in the hope that when you meet your match, you will be mortal once more?" She read from the small piece of parchment, the sound of the light flickering filling the intense silence. "Isn't it a bit dramatic?" "I'm a Black, what did you expect?" Regulus smirks. "I'm taking your silence as a yes?" She sighed, "Can't believe i'll be spending my early twenties hunting soul pieces and taking care of a baby that isn't mine." The war is just starting all over again, someone had to something about the odd way the darkest wizard of all time suddenly took over their world. 🩵Also in ao3 by auromich, i really do insist of reading it there so you can see the tags and warnings for the story🩵

The Life and Lies of Cassiopeia Rosier- Regulus Black by gryffindor_934

Changing Fates by WriterLily_29

After the ashes of war settle over Hogwarts, the cost of victory becomes heartbreakingly clear. Friends lost. Families shattered. Futures stolen. Haunted by what was sacrificed to defeat Voldemort, Harry, Hermione, Ron, and the rest of the surviving heroes face a world forever changed. But what if they could change it? With the help of ancient magic the Golden Trio and their closest allies make an impossible decision - to return to the past. Their mission is simple, yet impossible: to show them what's coming, and convince them to change the course of history, rewrite fate, save the ones they love, and prevent the horrors of the Battle of Hogwarts from ever happening. But as past and future collide, friendships are tested, secrets unravel, and fate proves harder to change than they ever imagined. Will the truth be enough to rewrite destiny - or will it only bring more chaos?

Venom in His Veins | Drarry by Destiel_067

When Harry Potter was six, he learned two things: magic is real, and love won't save you, not when you're bleeding on a kitchen floor while your relatives call it discipline. Left to fend for himself, Harry disappears off the grid by the age of eleven, resurfacing years later at Hogwarts with a cold smile, a wand that obeys like a blade, and blood on his hands from work no child should know. He doesn't wear the Boy Who Lived like a badge. It's a target and he's the one aiming. Draco Malfoy has spent years preparing to hate Harry Potter. But the boy who returns to Hogwarts in their sixth year isn't the golden savior of the wizarding world. He's sharp, strategic, dangerous, and devastatingly disinterested in the war everyone assumes he's destined to win. As tensions mount and alliances shift, Draco finds himself drawn to the boy who kills with quiet precision and smiles like he knows something you don't. But the closer he gets, the more he realizes: Potter doesn't need saving. He needs someone who won't flinch when the world calls him a monster.

Forbidden // Regulus Black by HAYLEYROSEANN

"I am so glad I met you, you saved me and loved me in ways I could never have imagined possible." Regulus said, love shining in his eyes. "You say that like loving you is difficult." Ellery said raising a brow. "It is," Regulus looked down, turning crestfallen. Ellery moved forward placing her hands on his cheeks and smiling at him, "it's not. Loving you is one of the easiest and best things I've ever done." ***************************************************** Ellery Potter, the little sister to the famous ringleader of the marauders has been castaway into the shadows all her life. But there's one person who looks beyond and sees who she really is. Regulus Black is the one person who sees Ellery for all that she is and he's the one Slytherin boy who never hurts or makes fun of her. But what happens when James and Sirius finds out? What will they do? The Harry Potter universe belongs to JK Rowling along with most characters except my OC's and the plot is my own* This book is translated into Spanish by @sinttiin
